Guys,

Just wanted to know if anyone here has this splitter from monoprice and what they thought. Im looking to buy a splitter since my TV has only one HDMI input and dont want to use my HK for video processing.

Thanks

    Thanks. Are you running HDMI 1.3a cables throughout or just the normal HDMI cables? Trying to figure what will give the the best picture

    Yeah, I bought that same one almost, and it worked great. At the time I was running 1.3, not 1.3a but the picture was still great.

    I have one on its way from Monoprice, can't beat the price. I wish they'd have one, for more money of course, that would take the HD sound and output to 5.1 analogs.

    BTW, what's wrong with passing the signal through your receiver? Sounds like it has HDMI switcher built-in.

    It has the HDMI built in, but for some reason there is some sort of handshaking issue between my Comcast cablebox and my TV- some non-hd channels come out stretched. HK said that there is a setting on my TV to compensate for this, but it is grayed out and doesnt let me use it when running HDMI from my receiver. Using Component is great, but just too time consuming in switching inputs for the TV...
